Production of public goods in South-Bohemia region
TRNKOVÁ, Jana
The content of the first part of my work is a description of basic economy definitions from goods and public sector. I explain there public goods and their financing. This part is important because of better understanding of the second part of this work. My work name is Production of public goods in South Bohemian, and public goods are a lot so in the second part I chose description of a czech education from 2004 to 2007.

Fiscal rules in selected EU countries between 2004-2015: sensible method for consolidation of public finances or fad of politicians?
Veselý, Lukáš ; Strejček, Ivo (advisor) ; Chmelová, Pavla (referee)
The subject of fiscal rules is very topical issue. The rise of public debt in certain developed countries resulted in what is sometimes called "debt crisis". Debt of those countries which is higher than their annual gross domestic product is viewed as unpayable by some economists. The main objective of this thesis has been to prove or disprove hypothesis that the fiscal rules studied in this paper are an effective solution for public finance consolidation. This verification was based on the analysis of fiscal rules functioning in selected countries between 2004 and 2015. As per results of analysis the paper aims to give recommendations for the Czech financial constitution proposal. The actual results of inquiry proved the hypothesis. Well-chosen fiscal rules are the right way towards fiscal consolidation, provided they are observed. Fiscal rules making thus requires an emphasis to be placed on the well-formulated exit clauses altogether with prospective sanctions. The current Czech financial constitution proposal is built on the correctly picked fiscal rule type, although the reference value lacks economic sense and it would not lead, with a high degree of probability, towards fiscal consolidation.

Economy of Chile in 1960s and 1970s with Accent on Market Reforms after 1973
Strejčková, Klára ; Pekárek, Štěpán (advisor) ; Ševčík, Miroslav (referee)
This bachelor thesis puts the stress on the analysis of economic reforms approved in Chile in the 60's and 70's years of the 20th century. The focus of this work is profoundly dedicated to the analysis of two important macroeconomic indicators: developments of inflation and trade exports, bearing in mind the context of the coup in 1973 which is seen as a direct consequence of the communist rule of the Salvador Allende's Cabinet (1970-1973). The Allende's Cabinet strove to transform the Chilean economic society into a socialist one. The bachelor thesis has validated a hypothesis stating that the pro-market reforms approved after 1973 led to diversification of the Chilean export as well as a gradual and progressive stabilization of the country's inflation that had reached as 350 % during the socialist Allende's government. This work brings a comparison of two very different economic doctrines that formed Chile in the 70's of the last century. There is being compared a socialist government approach, having focused on nationalizing of the private sector, to the liberal government's approach aimed at decreasing the public sector, privatization as well as tearing down international trade barriers.

Strategic Trade Policy in Defence and Security Industry
Neumannová, Pavla ; Žamberský, Pavel (advisor) ; Jiránková, Martina (referee)
The master thesis is devoted to a nontraditional, however, in the todays world to a very current topic, arms industry and its support. The thesis connects the theoretical concept of the strategic trade policy (defined by P. Krugman or J. Brander) to its practical interpretation and application in the defence and security industry. The first chapter explains the strategic trade policy using the Brander Spencer analysis. The topic of the second chapter is strategic industries and this chapter answers the question whether the defence and security industry is a strategic industry or not. The third chapter analyses the possibilities of the support of DSI and compares approaches of different EU member states. The last chapter is devoted to the solution of this problem. The main contribution of this thesis is a new interpretation of the strategic trade policy, analysis of the importance of the defence and security industry and its support and suggestion of practical measures for Czech companies and for the Czech Ministry of Defence.

Míry podobnosti pro nominální data v hierarchickém shlukování
Šulc, Zdeněk ; Řezanková, Hana (advisor) ; Šimůnek, Milan (referee) ; Žambochová, Marta (referee)
This dissertation thesis deals with similarity measures for nominal data in hierarchical clustering, which can cope with variables with more than two categories, and which aspire to replace the simple matching approach standardly used in this area. These similarity measures take into account additional characteristics of a dataset, such as frequency distribution of categories or number of categories of a given variable. The thesis recognizes three main aims. The first one is an examination and clustering performance evaluation of selected similarity measures for nominal data in hierarchical clustering of objects and variables. To achieve this goal, four experiments dealing both with the object and variable clustering were performed. They examine the clustering quality of the examined similarity measures for nominal data in comparison with the commonly used similarity measures using a binary transformation, and moreover, with several alternative methods for nominal data clustering. The comparison and evaluation are performed on real and generated datasets. Outputs of these experiments lead to knowledge, which similarity measures can generally be used, which ones perform well in a particular situation, and which ones are not recommended to use for an object or variable clustering. The second aim is to propose a theory-based similarity measure, evaluate its properties, and compare it with the other examined similarity measures. Based on this aim, two novel similarity measures, Variable Entropy and Variable Mutability are proposed; especially, the former one performs very well in datasets with a lower number of variables. The third aim of this thesis is to provide a convenient software implementation based on the examined similarity measures for nominal data, which covers the whole clustering process from a computation of a proximity matrix to evaluation of resulting clusters. This goal was also achieved by creating the nomclust package for the software R, which covers this issue, and which is freely available.

Banctel, Kristýna ; Filipová, Vladimíra (advisor) ; Drozen, František (referee)
The purpose of this study is to compare tax and civil-law issues concerning property business in Austria and in Czech Republic in 2016 and to investigate the efficiency of the current legislation against the real estate bubble. The theoretical part of this study contains selected demographic and price statistics concerning real estate in both countries and focuses on the description of the existing law currently in effect in both compared countries. The practical part analyses tax and transactions costs that concern property trading and a comparison of possibilities of amortisations and rentability of a rented flat in both countries.

Výběr a implementace open source nástroje pro řízení portfolia projektů
Marek, Jan ; Chlapek, Dušan (advisor) ; Kučera, Jan (referee)
Methods and ways of implementation of changes and innovations in companies through project management are in today's society very well established. There exists methodologies, techniques and tools for the management of individual projects. However in a role of project manager, I very often faced the fact that companies are performing the project portfolio management in very intuitive way. This in itself leads to failed and prematurely terminated projects, initiation of the wrong projects or realisation of correct projects, but at the wrong time. Very often I have also recognized, that there is lack of awareness of fact, that there are also Open Source applications that can help with the organization's portfolio. This thesis deals with the definition of requirements, search and selection of proper OSS application and subsequent implementation. In the first part of this thesis I prepare a theoretical framework about PPM, and on that basis then identify and verify a set of requirements for selection of right OSS PPM application. The next section of thesis describes searching for suitable applications from a variety of sources, assessment against the requirements and the final selection. In the last part the implementation project is drafted, which aims to serve other colleagues in project management as one of the possible implementation paths. The outputs are then continuously confronted with experts in matter of projects and project management in the field of IT in order to maximize symbiosis between theory and real life experiences. Virtually every project management methodology defines the collection of already-proven techniques, best practices or lessons learned from the previous similar implementations. The main contribution of this thesis I see in fact that it contains not only the design of the project implementation, but also describes a logical path, what leads to the result. Therefore this thesis could be used as a base or discussed best practice, when a project of implementation of PPM application in place.

Poetry of Karel Hlaváček
Loučková, Tereza ; Kořená, Markéta (advisor) ; Binar, Vladimír (referee)
Moje diplomová práce má přiblížit poetiku Karla Hlaváčka ve všech čtyřechjeho sbírkách. Pod slovo poetika jsem zahrnula versologii (metrum, rytmus, rýmy ... ), eufonii, básnické figury, tropiku, slovník, motivy a kompozici. Pokusím se o podrobný rozbor všech složek Hlaváčkovy poezie, zcela ponechávám stranou interpretaci, kteráje dalším, velmi specifickým stupněm rozboru básnického díla a vyžadovala by samostatné bádání. Diplomová práce je tedy členěna na čtyři základní oddíly, z nichž každý patří jedné Hlaváčkově sbírce. Každý má svůj vlastní krátký úvod, ve kterém uvádím kdy ajak daná sbírka vznikla. Následuje vlastní rozbor, ten má ukázat především Hlaváčkovy přednosti a tvárné prostředky, které se vyskytují ve všech sbírkách, tedy to, co je typicky hlaváčkovské. Analýza sbírek je prováděna krok za krokem podle běžného schématu: rytmický rozboreufonický rozbor - sémantický rozbor - motivicko-kompoziční rozbor. Těžiště mé práce je však ve výběru a uvádění dostatečného množství příkladů ve všech oddílech, protože především díky nim se ozřejmí všechny zvláštnosti Hlaváčkova básnického jazyka; často je i popis zbytečný, úryvky básní hovoří samy za sebe a není třeba je dále rozebírat. Navíc se tak každému čtenáři naskýtá možnost najít mezi uváděnými příklady další a další zajímavé zvukové (a jiné) souhry a...

History of vegetational development in the Cheb basin from sedimentary record of the SOOS National Nature Reserve
Suda, Tomáš ; Kuneš, Petr (advisor) ; Bešta, Tomáš (referee)
Vegetation development in the Cheb basin ( W Czech Republic) recorded in the sediments of the SOOS ational ature Reserve This thesis focuses on palaeoecological research of quaternary sediments in the Soos National Nature Reserve (Cheb basin, NW Czech Republic). Quaternary history of this locality is poorly known, despite it is a valuable and protected area with high natural qualities. The Soos basin is also known for its unique geological record, which is expected to cover information on landscape dynamics at least during the Holocene. A lake existed in the Soos basin enabling accumulation of diatomite and peat sediments of a broad palaeoecological potential. Records were analysed with method of pollen analysis and were dated using 14C. The results of this study bring information about vegetation development in the area of Cheb basin as well as development of lake ecosystem. It also gives a new insight on lake's origin and its age. The accumulation of peat sediments started in the Preboreal period and was continuous at least until the Atlantic following with a hiatus, therefore further detection of vegetation development is impossible. The beginning of diatomite accumulation, as well as the existence of the lake goes back to the Bølling interstadial, according to radiocarbon dating. However, this...

Satisfaction of women in labour with nursing care during childbirth.
KLÍMOVÁ, Magdaléna
This dissertation investigates the level of satisfaction among expectant mothers with the care services provided during childbirth. Satisfaction reflects a subjective perception of an expectant mother in meeting her needs during childbirth. The feeling of satisfaction is very personal, however, evaluation of the care provided needs to be determined and not ignored. It is important for expectant mothers that the health care professionals present as empathic, friendly, co-operative, and tactful.Theoretical part was developed from evidence-based literature and available findings related to this problematic. There is a description of a childbirth process including a midwife's role during the individual stages of childbirth and options for pain management. Other chapters focus on midwife's approach toward an expectant mother and factors which influence the level of satisfaction during childbirth. Dissertation's aim was to determine whether the expectant mothers were more satisfied in smaller maternity departments, and to evaluate the way a midwife may influence the mother's satisfaction. There were two hypotheses stated and verified by a statistical testing. Hypothesis No. 1: Expectant mothers are more satisfied in smaller maternity departments than larger ones. Hypothesis No. 2: The level of satisfaction is influenced by midwife's empathic approach. Practical part focused mainly on a midwife's approach toward expectant mother. A quantitative research was implemented in form of questionnaires. The research sample constituted of expectant mothers from four postpartum departments in the Czech Republic. In total the sample included 215 expectant mothers, 109 from smaller facilities and 106 from larger maternity departments. In terms of the overall level of satisfaction with their midwife during the childbirth process, 89% of expectant mothers from smaller maternity departments and 83% of expectant mothers from larger departments stated they were satisfied. Conversely, 11% of respondents from smaller facilities and 17% of respondents from larger facilities were dissatisfied. Based on research analysis comparing the level of satisfaction of expectant mothers from smaller and larger maternity departments the hypothesis no. 1 "Expectant mothers are more satisfied in smaller maternity departments than the larger ones" did not show as statistically significant and was rejected. Nonetheless, the questionnaire responses clearly showed that empathic approach of a midwife influenced expectant mother's satisfaction. Statistical testing demonstrated a significant correlation between an expectant mother's satisfaction and empathic approach of a midwife. The second hypothesis "The level of satisfaction is influenced by midwife's empathic approach" was accepted.The research findings may serve as a guiding material for the midwives in order to provide a high quality care to expectant mothers during the childbirth process. They may also be utilised by future midwives who are in undergraduate preparation for the profession, or those professionals who contribute in any way during the childbirth process. Additionally, the research findings may be presented at conferences designated for midwives.
